Its not a hard and fast way to judge anything but in general worse players are far far less likely to purchase a compendium.
But it's unlikely that ownership of compendium would help explain skill once MMR is taken into account, so in a ranked game it should not matter.

This guy was talking about "below the trench nobody had a compendium" and this other guy asked "what does compendium have to do with skill"...
We are absolutely not talking about judging people in-game based on their compendium ownership. Just that higher MMR games have more compendiums.

My question was'nt really serious, I just wanted to imply that while compendium ownership may vaguely be correlated with skill, judging people from it is a bit hasty...

I don't know why people don't get that without rat dota, we would get 90 minute Chinese farm wars with eye of frost touch/stats all day every day. If you don't like getting ratted, pick heroes that can deal with it. But don't nerf a way to play the game by changing the map itself.

I don't know why people stopped distinguishing rat dota from split pushing.

That's the Riot way

500 comment thread on reddit about how the drop rate for card packs is too low. Meanwhile i have gotten like 4 today alone.
|
People want full collections of cards 2 days after they are released or something, ignoring the 6 weeks remaining until TI actually starts lol.

People only think it's too low relative to last year. That doesn't mean it's 'too low'.
Cards should be collectible, there's no value in massively available collectibles.

Free wards for everyone!!!! A tighter meta. More powerful towers to prevent early ganking. Vision for everyone. Never leave your lane ever due to unlimited sustain!
The riot way!

A visual indicator that you are being targeted by the tower would be nice. Just in case you are totally blind. /s

I don't see how that would help if you're blind.

I think there is a noise when you get targeted by a tower in LoL. But to be fair, the towers in LoL are no joke, they fuck people up super fast.

The fountain deals 33% of your max hp every 0.5 secs in lol.
let's not bash lol too much but i can't believe how hard they are trying to make the game fun for the losers in a way that takes away from the winners
|
I think it was merlini who was talking about fountain diving and somebody asked him "So you are a fan of fountain diving?" and he said "If Icefrog didn't want people fountain diving he'd make it 1-shot everybody".
Fountain-farming is an Icefrog-given right 
I guess if barracks respawned then fountain farming might get a tad excessive LOL

for ppl that dont want to get got spoilered should prolly avoid watching hehe games :_D
